Promotes: Emotional Awareness, Social Skills, Self-Regulation, Connection Description
Bring social-emotional learning to life with the Slumberkins Classroom Library & Kin Set—a complete collection designed to support children through story, connection, and hands-on learning.
This set pairs all 15 core Slumberkins Kins with the Slumberkins Big Book Library, featuring large-format educator editions of each story. Together, these tools create an immersive learning experience where children can see, hear, and hold the emotional lessons they’re building.
Each Big Book introduces a foundational social-emotional skill—from self-worth and boundaries to teamwork and coping with change—through engaging storytelling and beautifully illustrated pages. Designed for classroom use, small group reading, and shared experiences, these books serve as anchor texts for the Emotional Learning Curriculum Hub Curriculum.
When paired with their corresponding Kin, each lesson becomes more tangible, helping children connect stories to real-life moments and giving them a physical reminder of the skills they’re learning.

Joshua★★★★★
Each kin comes with its own sturdy book, so my classroom now has a whole library of emotional learning stories—and my students fight over who gets to hold Bigfoot during circle time. The variety of plush characters makes it easy to connect each lesson to a different feeling.
Alexander★★★★★
I was so relieved to find a set that actually helps my kids talk about their feelings instead of just throwing tantrums. The plush kins are surprisingly cuddly and the big book library keeps them engaged for short story times.
Daniel G.★★★★★
My three-year-old gets so excited picking out a new kin each night for our bedtime story. The Big Book Library has so many titles that we haven't even gotten through them all yet, and I've noticed him starting to use words like 'frustrated' and 'calm' on his own.
Eva G.★★★★★
I've been reading these with my kindergartener every night, and the way each book introduces a specific emotion like frustration or jealousy feels so natural. The plush Kins are surprisingly soft, and my daughter already sleeps with the little fox. Definitely a solid investment for teaching emotional intelligence.
Hazel K.★★★★★
Each kin has its own little book that teaches a different emotional skill, and my kids actually fight over who gets to hold the frustrated-feeling fox during story time. The plushies are surprisingly soft and well-made for how many you get in this set.
Andrew★★★★☆
My pre-k kids absolutely love the different characters, and I’m surprised how well the soft, plush bodies hold up to daily hugging and reading. The variety of books covers so many feelings that I’ve seen them actually start using words like "anxious" and "calm" on their own. Would be perfect if the storage bin were included, but the set itself is wonderful for circle time.
Hannah★★★★☆
I teach a mixed-age preschool class, and the 15 plush characters make it easy to pair a story with a specific emotion. My only small gripe is the book library is a bit heavy for me to carry around the room.
Miles★★★★☆
My kindergartners really connect with the Bigfoot kin during our morning circle, and the accompanying book makes discussing feelings feel natural. The plush is soft enough for little hands but sturdy enough for daily use, though I wish the storage bag was included.
Natalie K.★★★★☆
The little Otter kin has been a huge hit with my preschooler for calming down after a tantrum, and the book that goes with it is surprisingly well-written. The big book library covers a lot of important topics.
Alexander Z.★★★★☆
I was a little skeptical about the price, but having the full library with 15 plush friends makes social-emotional learning feel so natural during our bedtime stories. The hardcover book collection is sturdy enough for daily use, even with my toddler’s enthusiastic handling. Only wish the carrying case was a bit more padded for storage.
